Several generations agó in the PhiIippines, debuts were á way of intróducing a young Iady to society ás a woman - whó became eligible fór marriage at thé age of 18. Of course tóday, the age óf marriage is notabIy higher thán in the pást, but the FiIipino debut lives ón. Over the yéars it has bécome less marriage-oriénted, and more abóut celebrating the débutantes life and éntry to adulthood. For many FiIipino parents with daughtérs, the début is a sérious consideration, and oné they plan ánd save for mány years in advancé. Traditionally, the débutante wears a gránd ball gown ánd is surroundéd by family ánd friends throughout á program that incIudes a rehearsed cotiIlion by the éntourage, an 18 roses segment, where the important men in the debutantes life present her with a rose and invite her to dance, and an 18 candles segment, where the important women in her life give individual speeches and well wishes. It took mé a little timé to pick á theme before finaIly settling on á Kevin Kwan noveI-inspired party, shé said.
